Hello, I have a 13 year old male kitty that was recently diagnosed, through biopsy, with small intestine IBD. He is currently on prednisolone once daily and has only gained back 1/2 lb. The vet wants him to gain at least another pound or two. He eats really well, at least 1-1.5 cans (6oz size) per day and his vomiting has ceased. She said that if he has not gained any more by his next visit in November, she wants to try him on a light dose of chlorambucil (Leukeran) once every two weeks. Perhaps it will decrease more of the inflammation and hopefully he can gain weight. Has anyone used this with their kitty and any significant bad side effects? Also, do you really have to avoid touching their saliva for 24 hours after dosing? My cat kisses me and rubs his face on my arm or face a lot, he likes affection.
thanks for any help.
